Girls Of Summer
"Girls of Summer" is a single by American hard rock band Aerosmith. Released in 2002 as the only single from the band's 2002 greatest hits album, ''O, Yeah! Ultimate Aerosmith Hits'', the song was written by lead singer Steven Tyler, guitarist Joe Perry and professional songwriter Marti Frederiksen in Hawaii, following the end of the Just Push Play Tour.

Another song from those sessions, "Bad Enough", was originally submitted for the ''Spider-Man'' soundtrack - where it was rejected and replaced with an Aerosmith cover of the "Spider-Man" theme song - before being rewritten into another track present in ''Oh Yeah!'', "Lay It Down". The single reached #25 on the U.S. Mains ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
